E.A.T E-Glo Petit (2019) vs Pro-Ject Phono Box RS2 (2021)?
I have to make a decision rapidly.Did someone heard the new Pro-Ject’s flagship: the RS2?Pro-Ject and E.A.T are sisters companies. the EAT E-glo Petit is manufactured by Pro-Ject ( < Ken Kessler, in HiFi News).NB: the EAT E-glo Petit has been compared by an Audiogon member to the tubed Pro-Ject phono box DS2, but the latter uses op amplifiers, no discrete components as the E-glo does.
FEATURES COMPARISON
The Phono Box RS2 >< EAT E-glo Petit are very different though (to be displayed on a larger screen than a smartphone’s):
solid state >< hybrid (tubes + solid state); fully balanced >< unbalanced; BOTH are: highly configurable and use discrete components.
In this table (in French!), I tried to sum up the differences to have a clearer view over those two devices.
CONTEXT:-turntable Pre-Audio DE1800NG (terrific affordable linear air arm turntable)- cartridge Ortofon 2M Black LVB- amplifiers: NuPrime AMG-PRA & AMG-STA- Speakers Harbeth M30.2 Anniversary (terrific midrange and treble)MY NEEDS:-very beautiful and lifelike midrange & treble.-holographic soundstage-bass is not that important (limited by the speakers anyway)-balanced (XLR) mode is just a nice to have (no must have at all)
[sorry for the layaout, the website packs my very clear and readable layout and all paragraphs are now coggled together - a pain in the A...]
